Thankful for #TeslaTakeDown, #NoKings, #HandsOff, #50501, #Indivisible, #WomensMarch for pushing our electeds to step up and start taking action. November 4th wouldn't have been successful without the activism of these groups and many others.

Truer readings of the Constitution reveal that the branches are not co-equal. Congress is the primary institution of the republic. The executive branch is there to carry out the will of the people as expressed by Congress as law. Thus "he shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed..."

Of course this came from the top. Only MAGAts placed in positions of power they are unqualified for would have the audacity to take such unlawful actions knowing the corrupt Regime and equally corrupt SCOTUS will let them evade consequences.

It reeks of the stench of an inferiority complex of gargantuan proportions. How a man of such stunted emotional maturity and feeble intellectual abilities could reach so high in our country speaks of the incredible advantages of wealth and white privilege in our society. See 'Being There' 1979.

Tesla's era of "innovation" is long over. Competition from China and now apparently Europe has overtaken Musk's flagship company. Musk is a taker more interested in getting credit for other's work than empowering his subordinates. He "talent" is convincing investors of his "worth".

Unfortunately one must be very thorough in vetting charities. There are many that address very worthy causes but their use (or misuse) of funds makes them poor beneficiaries of your donations.
I find Charity Watch and Charity Navigator useful in researching charities but they aren't perfect.

Spotify's shoddy treatment of recording artists was reason enough to abandon it years ago. There's no good reason to stay on Spotify when very good alternatives exist. My wife and I love Tidal. You may prefer something else. Just leave Spotify.

Never been a big fan of Nike. Now I will be sure to let others know to avoid this brand. It seems almost axiomatic that billionaires can't help but be right wing douches. Maybe being a dick is what becoming a billionaire usually requires. All the more reason to make them much rarer.

Yes! Either Schumer directed this or was too incompetent to prevent it. Either way he needs to go

Now I don't believe they can learn. They need to step down or be removed. This seems a perfect example of what Thomas Kuhn describes in "The Structure of Scientific Revolutions." It takes a new generation to embrace a new paradigm.

We definitely should do something about these freeloaders taking advantage of government benefits and drawing salaries for "make work" jobs. Johnson is a prime example.

Yes! What's the point of voting for Schumer and his gang of "centrists". They achieve nothing except appeasing their wealthy donors at the expense of all other Democratic voters and the nation.

This has been the name I've used for for it months now. It's the only moniker that fits. The party is as far from the party of Lincoln as it can get.

Does she not understand that her job is to make laws not to just hold votes? I'm rendered speechless!

You are no leader. You've failed when you had the entire Democratic base united behind you. Just resign your leadership. I can't stand the sight of your sclerotic, feckless approach to the crisis facing this nation.

The Senate Dem "centrists" and Dem Senate leadership have now definitively proven they are spineless, feckless, and corrupt. Schumer should resign for his failure but he won't because he's owned by rich NY donors who are happy with his ineffectiveness.
I'm disgusted!

I sincerely wish we can shift the discussion in this country from universal health insurance coverage to universal healthcare. Insurance is just the intrusion of profit making into a system that should just be providing services as needed like the fire department, postal service, etc.

Left Spotify years ago because of the way it treats the artists it relies on. Recently went from Napster to Tidal. Really enjoying Tidal.
